Chapter 124: The Gunner's Dawn

Jeremy was thrown to the deck by Landrig's neck, and when all the pirates were immobilized in fear by the dragon's might, and then turned into ice sculptures that sank to the bottom of the sea by a few mouths of dragon breath, the madman rushed into the broadside gun compartment like crazy, and he punched and kicked the pirates who were used to operate the guns in the bilge, and under the pressure of his blades and muskets, these people trembled and loaded the seven or eight guns with ammunition, and then set them on fire.

After three cannon shots, the fourth shot shot a puff of black smoke rose in the cabin and exploded.

Fortunately, the ammunition they used was a kind of black solid ball, and the base gunpowder, although unstable, had the advantage of not being very powerful - it just blew the gunner team operating the gun and a few unlucky eggs next to them to pieces, Jeremy escaped because he was far away, but the movement on this side also managed to attract Lear's attention.

Hag stood on the back of the Holy Dragon and descended into the sky above the pirate ships, the terrifying wingspan of the Holy Dragon distorting the falling sunlight.

The Barbarians pass Lear's orders to give these people two choices, either jump into the sea or sink to the bottom of the sea with the ship, and between dying immediately and dying after struggling for a while, all of them do not hesitate to choose the former, including Jeremy.

I don't know if it's fortunate or unfortunate, when Jeremy is struggling in the icy waters, Landrig, who brought someone to receive the pirate ship at Lear's request, actually recognizes him, and naturally, he is "invited" to Lear's ship.

If you really want to sleep, someone will give you a pillow, and the first time you see Jeremy, Lear's heart blossoms, but he doesn't show anything and pretends to be very serious.

"Stupid pirate, give me a reason not to hang you immediately, you are so arrogant that even the fleet of the great mage master dares to attack!"

He pointed at Jeremy's nose and cursed.

"Oh no, my lord, I beg your pardon, I really didn't know that there was a great mage in this fleet, and if I did, I wouldn't dare to attack your idea anyway, so please give me a chance to repent and atone for my sins, so that I can sincerely repent and make up for your loss. ”

Jeremy pleaded exaggeratedly, although he didn't know what Lear had lost, the three shells flew a few hundred meters away and then fell limply to the surface of the sea, causing no harm at all, and his own people all went into the sea to feed the fish without even boarding their boat.

Perhaps, how many mouthfuls of dragon breath were lost?

Of course, no matter what, the first priority now is to save his life, and there is no point in such a thing as cheekiness and backbone, once when he was besieged by the Count's fleet and even captured in prison, he relied on this trick to finally save himself.

Leave the barrel in, not afraid of running out of gunpowder.

"No, you filthy, cunning, vile pirate, I don't believe a word of your word, and if you can't offer a decent ransom to prove that your life is worth it, then I'm going to hang you now!"

Lear continued to threaten with great vigour, knowing that he had to squeeze the last shred of hope out of this kind of person before he could hold it in his hands, so although he had no intention of killing Jeremy in his heart, he still pretended to want to eat the other person's flesh.

"My lord, I know the island where Annabelle is stationed, she is the daughter of the deaf Neris, and one of my brother's mistresses, and all the riches she has collected with the men are on that island, and I can take you there, and I beg you to spare my humble life. ”

Jeremy didn't hesitate to confess his brother's mistress without any guilt, and if it weren't for the fear of his brother's ferocity, he wouldn't even mind taking Lear directly to the Deep Blue City, a sea country run by the Port Clan and the Fishmen, but then Lear would be dead, and he would surely become a fish eater before then.

Of course, this is not what he wants, the point is to save his life now.

As for dignity and discipline, there is no such thing as a leader in the party.

"Well, that's not bad, but what if I know where she's stationed now? Are you going to let me use these cargo ships and converted fishing boats to attack her well-defended fortresses and camps? No! I'm going to hang you!"

Lear pretended to pinch his chin and think about it, then he lashed out as if he felt he was being teased.

Jeremy is dead, didn't you just beat me with these cargo ships and converted fishing boats, but that's not the point, the point is that you have dragons, dragons!

But he muttered these words in his heart, as smart as he naturally knew that if Lear didn't mention it first, if he dared to mention it, then the next step must be to go to the sea to feed the fish, and the other party was waiting for him to express more sincerity and value, but all his belongings were on the boat behind him and had been captured, and even Annabelle's station was taken out of his brother's mouth after a drunken time, and he had no other secrets.

Unless...... It's that.

But was that really a chance to save his life? Even his own brother sneered at him, and could he expect a stranger to understand half of his life's work?

I had no choice but to give it a go.

"My lord, I know artillery! I can improve the ship's artillery for you, and build an invincible fleet for you, as long as you have my artillery, your fleet can crisscross the sea!"

Jeremy said loudly, and when he talked about artillery, his eyes welled up with a strong light of confidence, as if everything in this world was inferior to the knowledge in his mind, the dream in his heart, at this moment he was electricity, he was light, he was the only myth!

At this moment, he was possessed by a cannon god, and on the mottled deck of this endless ocean, he was not fighting alone!

"Like you just did?"

Lear mercilessly poured a bucket of thunderbolt ice on his head.

“......”

"No, please believe me, my lord, it was definitely an accident, as long as I am given enough funds and time, I will definitely be able to research real artillery, these barbaric wars of knives, guns and sticks will be replaced by a new mode of war, no defense can not be destroyed, iron walls can no longer protect the safety of the enemy, war will be more full of violent beauty, the efficiency of killing will be increased tenfold and hundredfold, even magic can be imitated, ordinary people can kill dragons!"

Jerry screamed hysterically, at this moment he was no longer a prisoner, no longer afraid of the threat of death, he presented the blueprint in his mind to the world and moved himself first.

The vision of the explorer, the wisdom of the pioneer, and the glory of the forerunner were all on his face at this moment, even if no one in the world understood him, and now everyone around him looked at him like a madman, but just as Hag twisted his wrist and was about to pick up Jeremy's neck and throw it into the sea, Lear stopped him.

"I believe in you. ”

He said this to Jeremy.

"What?"

Jeremy couldn't believe it, he was even ready to be generous, no one had ever looked up to him in all these years, including his own brother Peterley, and he didn't even feel sorry for finally being able to declare his ideals loudly before the temporary moment.

However, it seems that you don't have to die?

He looked carefully into Lear's eyes, and when the impassioned emotions subsided, he immediately reverted to that cowardice and humility, courage is a good thing, but few people can maintain it all the time.

When the threat of death is gone, the vast majority of people immediately return to their nature.

"I said, I believe what you say, and not only that, but I'll give you all the help you need for your research, even the magical and technical aspects. ”

Lear repeated, to be honest, he was also shocked by Jeremy just now, and he was not like others who thought he was crazy or incredible, because he did know that Jeremy's vision would happen in another world in a few hundred years.

The idea of killing a dragon sounds crazy for ordinary people, but if you give you a Leopard 2 or 96A main battle tank, it's definitely possible, and if you have a high-yield nuclear weapon, I'm afraid even Yasha and Ogas won't dare to shake it.

No matter which world they are in in the parallel universe, the intelligence of human beings is always strikingly similar, and the pioneers are always considered insane, but history has proven countless times that these madmen have enough power in their minds to change the world.

Lear knew that Jeremy was a talent, but what he didn't expect before was that the latter turned out to be a genius with such terrifying energy.

This is simply Gustav II and Napoleon the Great of the planet Cronie.
